Q.

Consider the following statements:

(1) If all the reactants are not taken in their stoichiometric ratio. then at least one reactant will be left behind. 

(2) 2 moles of H2(g) and 3 moles of O2(g) produce 2 moles of water

(3) Equal wt. of carbon and oxygen are taken to produce CO2 then O2 is Iimiting reagent (Assume 100% yield in all cases)

The above statements (1), (2), (3) respectively are (T = True, F = False) :

Detailed Solution

At least one reactant will be left behind if all the reactants are not added in their stoichiometric ratio because if they are not, one of the reactants will function as a limiting agent, causing the reaction to halt.

Due to the fact that H2 is the limiting reagent, 2H2+3O22H2O will result.

C+O2CO2

The molecular weight of oxygen is larger than that of carbon, thus if the weights of carbon and oxygen are removed in equal amounts, oxygen will be left behind. As a result, there will be more moles of carbon than oxygen.
